From my understanding,the document I sent you they pulled from ERP. They are not sure who
forwarded it to Purchasing but it never got sent through CSO for filing or new signatures from
anyone. In my opinion,that should make the document invalid since no new signatures were
collected. But if you are fine with filing it this way I will need a clear statement cause that will be

Now purchasing is more on top of things but in the past they were renewing contracts and not asking
for contracts to be filed with our office until it became a mess and then they started asking
departments get contract numbers. That's why I was asking to ask them if y'all didn't want to
involve Legal yet because this seemed like a mess I have seen in the past.
Taylor,
I have attached the"Renewal No. 3"that someone sent off to Purchasing but it is a duplicate of
54718 which was Renewal No. 2. So someone just used the same document but just changed the
terms without getting new signatures.

Purchasing does not sign the CSCCs or handle them except when they are completely signed and

completely then it is good to go so I think Legal would be the best route.

Renewal 3 was done before I was herein Water so I am not sure. All I see in ERP—which will be the

Well someone in your department had to have requested a renewal to purchasing. I don't know how
y'all track that. That is a departmental question. Unless this is on a auto renewal but I doubt it is
since Renewal No. 4 is being routed for signatures. The only thing I can think of is asking your
buyer if they can see who requested it or processed the request. Somewhere along the way someone
received a request or notification from the system that the renewal was processed. I get them for our

No one submitted this through Adobe Sign to me. So my question was mostly like who contacted
Purchasing to get a renewal or turned in this document to Purchasing. That way I can talk to them
about why they thought this was a valid renewal. If we cannot remember then we need to bring
Legal into the conversation. I know in the past Purchasing was doing PO/Bids as"contracts' but
since then we have corrected that error so when this Renewal No. 3 was due,it should've been
routed through all the channels.

That just looks like someone took Renewal No.2 which was filed as 54718 and just changed the
terms and that is not okay cause the signatures are not valid. Who submitted this to Purchasing or
who in Purchasing handled this?

I received this renewal stating it is Renewal No.4 but I don't have Renewal No. 3 on file. Can y'all
please verify that this is supposed to be Renewal No. 4?And if it is then I need Renewal No. 3 to
file.

Hi Joyce,
The signed paperwork that was returned last week was for renewal#4.The attachment I sent you
yesterday was for renewal #3. It was signed but it was never filed within our City Secretary Office. In
order for them to file a renewal we need consent from the vendor since it is an old document.

I'm sorry but I don't know what that means. We returned the signed paperwork earlier this
week.

Good morning Joyce,
We seem to not have a renewal 3 filed with our City of Secretary Office for Landia. Can you give us
the consent to file the renewal attached?
